Odoo 12 Essentials - Learn the Purchase Application

Learn the Essentials of the Purchasing Application including automated procurement methods, vendor pricing, multiple UoM, and much more.

Odoo includes a Purchase Application that allows you to create request for quotations and purchase orders, receive goods, produce vendor bills and more. In this course I walk you through the entire purchase application workflow step-by-step using a real world example. After we get through the basics of the purchasing application, we'll get into more advanced settings and configurations such as manager approval on purchase orders, locking down purchase orders for better control and purchase order verification, and other advanced purchasing topics.

Covering the Odoo Purchase Management Workflow

Like most Odoo applications, many of the advanced Purchase Application options and settings are hidden until you need them. This provides you with a simple, easy-to-use purchase application that can grow with the needs of your company.

In this course we use a real-world example to demonstrate how to set up the Odoo Purchase Application. Topics include

  • Creating a new Odoo database and Installing the Purchase Application
  • Getting a complete overview of the Odoo Purchasing Cycle from creating a RFQ (Request for Quotation), Confirming the Purchase Order, Receiving the product and Paying the vendor bill.
  • Learning how to create a Manager Approval Process that requires purchase orders over a certain dollar amount to have manager approval.
  • Locking out changes after purchase orders are confirmed.

Learn with real-world examples

Unlike many Odoo functional courses that just walk you through menu items or provide with contrived examples, OdooClass uses real-world cases that we have actually worked through with real clients using Odoo. Along the way you learn tips and tricks to configuring Odoo Purchase Management that you simply won't find anywhere else.

Time is taken in lectures to explain why you would use certain purchasing features in real business scenarios. If you are serious about implementing a purchasing system with Odoo, then you will want to have this video course.
